Rainbow flag cut down! - - GEE, I wonder who did this? I just can't
imagine who? Could it beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee???? --

SUMMARY: Someone cuts away the now-famous rainbow flag in front of the Knights' Meade, Kansas, hotel, and the proprietors quickly order two more.

A 12-year-old son's gift of a colorful flag he found while staying with his grandparents in California has put his parents in the middle of controversy in the small town of Meade, Kansas.

J.R. and Robin Knight said they knew the rainbow flag was a symbol of gay rights when they decided last month to fly it on a pole in front of their Lakeway Hotel.

PHELPS!!!!!!! (In Seinfeld's "NEWMAN" voice!!!!!)

Isn't it interesting that Osama bin Fred Phelps (president of the godhatesfags domestic gay/Iraq soldier funeral picketing terra group) is based in Kansas where this vandalism occurred?

3. If that happened in Texas
you could shoot them on sight while they were taking down the flag. Its legal to shoot someone to protect your property in Texas.

4. Yes, I'm aware of that. I couldn't personally shoot someone over taking
down a flag -- but I'd had have no problem with unloading a cannister of pepper spray instead. :)

7. oh yeah, brother be pickin' a load of salt outta his ass
down round here.

I don't have any of the required props, but it would be hilarious for someone to get all Pulp Fiction on the Phelps . . . and share the photo album.
